208 – and Margie will smile and make everything say yes

This one is for @margiebarbour on her last day at the Bridport Arts Centre. I’d teased her about doing a dedication for some time and she has had a mention before, but this is it! The title is a paraphrase from a Brian Patten line: “Someone whose hands are warm and whose grin Makes everything babble and say yes”

#Collage365 exhibition

I showed a representative selection of my #Collage365 pieces in the foyer and cafe at Bridport Arts Centre
, South Street, Bridport Dorset DT6 3NR from 11 November to 23 December 2014

What is it all about?

The idea is a collage a day for a year. 365 images one after another on a daily basis. I am clearly deranged to tackle such a project.

My definition of collage is pretty loose: paper, scissors and glue will normally be involved. The aim is small and quick but I will go where it takes me and if it turns into assemblage so be it. Daubing and scribbling are definitely allowed.

Abstract by and large but recognisable images are not banned.

All work is for sale. So don't be shy, if you like something contact me art@davidsmithartist.net and we can agree a remarkably reasonable price.
